The general idea of BuildingPlan component is to describe the inner structure of the building. The main properties of those components are parameters, describing geometric plan of the room and properties of the materials that are used for construction. As input, the temperatures of indoor and outdoor air are required, they are used to compute heat losses. Also, there is another output - volume of the room, which can be used for computing ventilation.

BuildingPlanType1

BuildingPlanType1 models the simpliest case - one volume room with pregiven roomHeight (default value - 3m), roomWidth (default value - 5m) and roomLength (default value - 5m). One of the walls is in fact window. Heat losses through the window are with Uvalue=1,2 W/(m2∙K). The heat losses through other walls are ignored. The heat losses are computed as follows:

dQ/dT=(-1.0)∙(windowUvalue∙windowArea∙(tIndoor-tOutdooor))
